Tidalis Beta 1.017: Improvements To Combo Scoring At Game Over

This release fixes a single logic issue which some players had been running into
thanks to the Steam Summer Camp achievement for Tidalis. Essentially,
if you won a game board with a combo, then it would not score that combo
or give you achievements, because by definition it was waiting around
half a second to score combos to make sure that they were really done.
That logic makes perfect sense during actual gameplay, but when a game
over (victory or loss) is reached it can easily be assumed that the
combo is definitely done! So that's what the game now does. Enjoy!

This is a standard update that you can download through the
in-game updater itself, if you already have 1.000 or later. When you
launch the game, you'll see the notice of the update having been found
if you're connected to the Internet at the time. If you don't have 1.000 or later, you can download that here.
